Description
While enjoying a lovely afternoon in Niagara on the Lake, I noticed an elegantly dressed high heeled woman cooing over this cute Dachsund. The owner is holding the leash. I knew I wanted to capture the woman, who had gorgeous legs as she was paying attention to the dog. I asked the dog's owner if I could pet the pooch, but being a bit of a sleuth at times, my agenda was to capture stockings and canine. Of course, all the while preserving the modesty of the lady. No animals were harmed in the capture of this image. Thanks for viewing. Barbara McMahon

This is so inspired, Barbara. Really unusual and fun...what a fabulous eye you have! like!
Barbara McMahon replied:
Thanks so much Anne! I'm so glad you like this piece. Having the eye is easy but getting low to the ground is getting harder every year! :)

This is such a great capture, Barbara! And a point of view low near the ground truly helps to make this a very enjoyable experience of this bit of life! F/V

A very original idea, Barbara! In reading your description, I became fascinated by the strategy to obtain the desired photo! The lady. course seems to have some elegant legs! Great job! T Vtd.
Barbara McMahon replied:
Thank you Pedro! The lady definitely had beautiful "everything". Even before she saw the dog I wanted to take her photo. Very elegant. An enlargement of this image hangs proudly in the living room of a single male friend who "loves dogs but only second to a woman's legs in highheels and stockings"! He says he smiles everytime he sees it. Thank you for your support!

Barbara, Great photo love these instant on the site images, I am visiting your 3 links that you posted and voting on them and have chosen this photo to comment and promote. Great shot of the facial image of the dog and the woman's lovely legs bending down to get closer to the dog. The dog's face is priceless as he seems to be aware of the woman and staring right into your camera. Excellent details and a wonderful capture, voted, google, tweet and FB promoted
Barbara McMahon replied:
Thank you John for your generous compliment and eye for detail. I'm glad you noticed how the dog was looking right at me. Of course I was making cute "doggy" talk to him. Thanks so much!

Thank you Sharon for featuring "High Heels and A Dachsund" in the Women Artist group! Much appreciated.

Saucy, sassy and sexy! I think at least two of those are not mutually exclusive but I'm a fool for alliteration. I laughed out loud (won't do LOLs and other shorthand for my expressions of feelings) when I saw this delightful picture. voted, favorite, promoted as PIF in CFC group

Thank you William! I was wondering who would be the one to discover the elements of this photograph. I've just written the description so the viewer has a bit of a background. Delighted that you "laughed out loud!"
